Most the people I've talked to have enjoyed Tomb Raider. I haven't gotten around to playing it quite yet, but I bought it. From what I've heard it's basically Uncharted (I think that's it) with a strong female lead and bits of Tomb Raidery goodness. Compared to the original series there's more action, more leveling and upgrading, a little less actual tomb raiding, and a lot less killing dinosaurs and endangered animals. Lara is also less of a sex figure and more of an actual character, which is a huge plus in my opinion. She also controls much better than the old ones, which makes the platforming, puzzle solving, and giant set piece segments much less frustrating.
The logic isn't too consistent throughout the game (Expect cut scenes where dudes appear out of nowhere and kidnap you and moments where you wonder why something is suddenly a huge problem when it wasn't a while ago), but it's mostly to shake up the game play and it's still fun - Just be prepared to accept that the writers are the gods in this universe.
It feels like the Batman Begins of the Tomb Raider series - It's essentially Lara Croft's origin story. Expect sequels.
I have heard many good things about Bully but haven't played it myself.
I do believe you missed the sale on it, though.
Hmm still on sale for me at least, just refreshed.
I was referring to the daily/flash sales, where games usually go about 75% off.
